An Ordinary World: The Role of Science in Your Search for Personal MeaningDuncan, Todd Science Integration Institute 2001 0971262403 / 9780971262409 PAPERBACK Good 0971262403 ~Good. No DJ, as issued. Signed by author on title page. Trade Paperback. Light to moderate shelf wear to covers/corners; satisfaction guaranteed. Behind all the ordinary concerns, struggles, and details of your daily life, do you believe there is a context within which it really matters what you choose to do? Modern science has revealed insights about the universe that were unimagined just a few generations ago. Surely some of these insights are important for understanding the overall context that gives meaning and significance to our lives. But science has acquired a reputation for dehumanizing the world, leaving us stranded and alienated in a universe for which our existence seems irrelevant. An Ordinary World outlines a way to approach scientific information from a more optimistic and constructive point of view. You'll see how to develop a perspective on science from which you can pursue your own search for meaning in a way that is consistent with a scientifically realistic map of the world.

Green Hermeticism: Alchemy and EcologyPeter Lamborn Wilson; Christopher Bamford; Kevin Townley; Pir Zia Inayat Khan Lindisfarne Books 1584200499 / 9781584200499 PAPERBACK New 1584200499 New. No dust jacket as issued. Brand New! Support Independent Pacific Northwest Booksellers! Trade paperback (US). Glued binding. 206 p. Contains: Illustrations. Audience: General/trade. Hermeticism, or alchemy, is the ancient, primordial mystery science of nature through which people in all times and places have, for the sake of world evolution, sought to unite Heaven and Earth?divinity, cosmos, earth, and humanity, as a single whole. Selfless, intimate, dedicated to healing and harmony, Hermeticism has accompanied and sustained every religious epoch and revelation. It may be found in all historical cultures, from the traditions of India and China in the East to the Judeo-Christian West. It could even be said that Hermeticism is the primal cosmological revelation and the common ground of all spiritual traditions.Nevertheless, in the great revival of mystical, esoteric traditions and practices during the last century, Hermetic tradition?in fact, Nature herself?has been largely ignored. Today, when the Earth seems most under attack, Green Hermeticism is especially appropriate. book explores not only the ancient Masters? inner science, but also their science of Nature.During spring and summer 2006, Pir Zia Khan convened a series of gatherings to begin to unfold the contemporary meaning of ancient, sacred science for our time. Green Hermeticism is a partial record of that meeting. Peter Lamborn Wilson, explores the many ramifications of the alternative worldview offered by Hermeticism; Christopher Bamford provides a broad historical overview of the tradition from the Ancient Mysteries to contemporary manifestations of the alchemical tradition; while Kevin Townley brings a practical dimension to the gathering teaching the preparation of herbal elixirs and demonstrating that cosmology and philosophy can become a truly healing path for the Earth.Green Hermeticism is necessary reading for anyone seeking a spiritual and cultural path for the healing of the current ecological and cultural crisis.
